Working with MSF in Nigeria and in Sierra Leone, Dr. Sampath learned a lot about diseases she rarely or never saw in her US practice. The books Amitha refers to in this video are MSF Clinical Guidelines: Diagnostic and Treatment Manual and Essential Drugs: Practical Guidelines. They can be downloaded for free from the MSF Reference Books site.
